Its summer..not a very good season for saags/leafy veggies...but managed to find some good palak on this Friday...so cooked today with other vegetables....mouth melting literally! And anyway my vegan friends are complaining that i usually post a lot of non veg recipes....so here for all you health conscious vegans
Ingredient
Palak Saag - 2 bunch washed, cleaned and chopped finely
Pumpkin - 100gm - cut into very small cubes
Brinjal - 100 gm - cut into very small cubes
potato - 1 cut into same size cubes as above
paanch phoron 2 tsp- mix of spices made of equal quantity of jeera,
kala jeera/kalonji, sarson, methi dana, saunf/fennel seed
2 dry red chilly broken
turmeric - 1 tsp
salt as per taste
2 green chillies slit - only if you like it too spicy else avoid it
Oil
Method
Heat oil in a kadai. Add dry red chilli and paanch phoron - let it splutter.
Now add pumpkin, brinjal and potato and fry on a high flame for 2-3 minutes stirring continuously. Now add salt, turmeric and paalak saag and mix it well. Cover and cook for 15 mins or till it dries up....your saag is ready
Tips:
1. Cut vegetables in the same size as it cooks evenly and looks good
2. Clean and wash any leafy vegetable at least three to four times as they contain a lot of dirt
